I have a sort of love/hate relationship with Ranma 1/2, and when they announced the remake I wasn't sure if I would watch it. Turns out this is an excellent adaptation that (differing from the iconic 90s anime) sticks quite close to the manga, and so far has no filler. They did a great job of modernizing it, without losing the core feel/spirit. Some of the 声優 from the 90s version are present, and some are more recent (but well-established) voice actors. All of them are excellent!
One thing I love is how the short introduction animation (before the OP) is different for every episode. Otoh, I wasn't so crazy about the mixed animation styles that they use for various effects, but not the end of the world, considering how well everything is done overall.
Anyway, really solid (and so far, short) introduction to the series. I'm looking forward to season 2!
